AS Monaco switch focus back to domestic matters after qualifying for the quarter-finals of the Champions League by knocking Arsenal out of the tournament.

Leonardo Jardim's side will travel to Reims on Sunday, five days after they sealed a place in the final eight of the elite European competition on away goals.

Monaco had a 3-1 lead from the first leg at the Emirates, and they held off a 2-0 comeback from the Gunners on home turf this week to secure their fate.

Today in Nyon, Monaco were drawn against Juventus in the next round, but their immediate focus turns to Reims, who currently reside 13th in the Ligue 1 table.

Reims have had an inconsistent spell in the top flight having secured just one victory, four draws and five defeats, their last of which came against Montpellier, in their last 10 fixtures.

In contrast, Monaco have suffered just one defeat in their last 10 league meetings and can stretch their winning run to three following victories over Evian and Bastia.

Despite a difference in current form, the past fixtures between the two sides have been relatively mixed, with one apiece and two draws from their last four.

Former Liverpool and Bolton Wanderers forward David N'Gog is likely to start up front for the home side, while Jeremy Toulalan could keep his place in midfield alongside Fabinho and Layvin Kurzawa for Monaco.

Reims:

Form in Ligue 1: LDDDWL

Possible starting lineup: Agassa; Mandi, Tacalfred, Conte, Signorino; Bourillon, Oniangue; Diego, Charbonnier, Fortes; N'Gog
